To me, it seems exactly like the point of view that someone who wins the 100m would have.

Where people still starve, where people are still homeless, where people still live in poverty. What's your point here?

That's just your own assumption. Who cares what any of us imagines anyone else thinks? It's not really relevant.

Since you're responding and we're having a conversation about each other's opinions, I'd say it actually is relevant.

I'm not imagining what you think; I'm just responding to what you write.
